• Solution

• Find a number?
• When 15 is subtracted
• From 7 times the number
• The result is 10 more than twice the number.

Important Points to Solve the Problem

Suppose number is “y”.

7y – 15 (when 15 is subtracted from 7 times the number).

2y + 10 (result is 10 more than twice the number).

So, 7y – 15 = 2y + 10

Through this equation we can easily figure out the value of “y” (y = 5 answer).

To Find

Number = ?

Solution

Let suppose

Required number = y

According to the given condition;

7y – 15 = 2y + 10

7y – 2y = 25

5y = 25

y = 5 answer
